Education is seen as central to economic competitiveness, the reduction of poverty and inequality, and environmental sustainability. This book is an invaluable collection of key readings, with particular reference to globalization, for anyone concerned with the study of education at a time of major economic and social change.

This book is for everyone concerned with the social study of education, placing it at the center of political and sociological debate about post-industrial societies. The fifty-two papers examine major changes that have taken place in the late twentieth century, giving students a comprehensive introduction to both the nature of these changes and to their interpretation in relation to long-standing debates within education, sociology, and cultural studies.
